Complying with the NEW I-9 and E-Verify Regulations

The number of companies that were totally in compliance in the presenter’s 25+ years of conducting I-9 Audits is a big fat ZERO.

Making sure your I-9 forms are 100% correct will give you peace of mind.

It is vital that companies get a sense of their compliance picture by ensuring they are:

• Using the correct Form I-9’s – (a copy of the new form will be provided to participants)
• Filling out the forms correctly and completely
• Copying the correct documents and determining if it is necessary to copy documents at all.
• Keeping proper records
• Updating temporary work visas
• Not hiring employees who do not have proper documents
• Communicating properly to employees and new hires?
• Auditing their I-9s and knowing how to make corrections.

Areas Covered in the Session:-

• What to Expect From the Trump Administration
• Raids – What They Are And The Effect on Your Operations
• Recent Penalties for Non-Compliance
• Employer Responsibilities
• Review of The New I-9 Form
• Implementing a Follow-Up for Temporary Work Authorizations
• Determining Internal Practices on Retaining I-9 Forms
• Conducting a Self-audit and Correcting Mistakes
• Action Items
• Questions.

Background:-

The Trump Administration has announced it will start deporting undocumented aliens on day one or January 20, 2025. Employers should expect an increase in I-9 audits, higher fines for non-compliance, and major disruptions to business continuity.

Also expect raids in the construction, hospitality, agricultural, and food processing industries which were targets of the last Trump Administration.

Why You Should Attend:-

Last year, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the U.S. Citizens and Immigration Services (USCIS) released a new version of the I-9 form along with updated regulations for completing it. Some changes include allowing remote document verification but only if additional regulations are met. Make sure you are complying with these regulations and using the correct form.

The cost of not properly completing I-9 forms can be very high.

This means increased fines for violators. In addition to increasing the number of inspections, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has also nearly doubled the fines for incorrect I-9 forms to $272 to $2,701 per incorrect I-9 form. The fine depends upon the percentage of incorrect I-9 forms.

Have you conducted an I-9 audit recently? If not, the time to do so is now!!

Compliance is actually easy if you know what to do. Unfortunately, many organizations do not take the time to learn how to properly complete an I-9 form or do not train the people responsible for completing it. The forms are also changed every few years.

Don’t let your company become a statistic. Attending this webinar will help you maintain Peace of Mind when Immigration and Customs Enforcement knocks on your door.
